It’s no secret that mom’s do a LOT for their families, right? At least, it shouldn’t be a secret! I know with the end of school and summertime approaching, it’s easy to overlook her special day – but here’s some help on making this Mother’s Day her favorite one yet! These fabulous Mother’s Day Scavenger Hunt Printables & Gift Ideas are not only super fun, but also useful and thoughtful. After all, the mother in your life deserves something extra special!

The great thing about this particular scavenger hunt is that you can mix and match as you choose! If you don’t want to do the car one, leave it out – there’s no specific order it has to be in. I’ve included the vast majority of common places in a home, and below is a list of great gift ideas themed for each area. See – fun AND functional!

There’s TEN cards total of each design. The poems of each match, so it’s up to you if you like the green swirly and splatter design or the brown and colorful flowers one best! Print them on 8.5×11 (I recommend cardstock) and the cards will be 4×6 in size. Then run to Walmart to pick up the perfect Mother’s Day gifts, including the Philips Sonicare 2 Series Plaque Control toothbrush that removes up to 6X more plaque than a regular ol’ manual toothbrush for a much better clean, which any mom would appreciate 🙂

Remember, you want to hide them in the right spot, and have a DIFFERENT tag attached to it – use a hole punch and ribbon to do this, or just set it next to the present. This leads her straight on for more exciting Mother’s Day gifts!

Mother’s Day is coming up and it’s time to show the geeky moms in your life what they mean to you. Moms are a lot like Jedi and it takes some serious skills to do all that they do. This printable Star Wars Mother’s Day card is the perfect way to says thanks.

If you think about it, Star Wars has a lot of awfully cool and strong moms.

Anakin’s mom, Shmi Skywalker, raised him by herself. She worked insanely hard to give him the best life she could, despite their circumstances. When the time came, she also made the difficult choice of letting him go because she knew that could give him a better life too.

Luke and Leia’s mom, Padme Amidala, might not have had the opportunity to show off her momming skills, but there’s no denying that she would’ve been a good mom. She fought for the rights of people everywhere and wasn’t one to back down even when the odds were against her.

Luke’s Aunt Beru raised him and taught him the value of hard work. He had to finish his breakfast and get his chores done before he could go hang out with his friends. That’s pretty much how it works in my house too.

We don’t know anything at all about Rey’s mom, but I believe that whatever happened to her, she must have made those choices to protect her daughter.

As a mom, I sometimes feel like I need Jedi skills to get everything on my to-do list done and still keep my younglings happy. I made this printable Star Wars Mother’s Day card to reflect that.

Print your card on regular 8-1/2”x11” card stock. There’s no need to trim it. Just fold the card in half with the pictures and text facing outward. Fold it in half again with the front and back covers on the outside.

I like to use a wooden ruler to smooth the edges so that’s they’re really crisp.

If you want to DiY a gift for a Jedi Mom to go with your Star Wars Mother’s Day card, you might like these projects:
